We all recognize birthdays differently. If you’re not so happy about turning 25, why not focus on those things you love about yourself. Just make it a day all about you, regardless of what the counter says.
HaPpY BiRtHdAy!!! I remember feeling a little gloomy on my 25th, too. The second half of my 20s were MUCH better than the first half, though, so don’t be dismayed! Have a great day!!
Happy Birthday! Now you can rent a car without having to pay extra fees. I was super excited by that age perk when I turned 25, even though I had never needed to rent a car prior to then.
Happy Birthday, lovely! That cupcake looks amazing, I want it! But I feel you on the not being excited part– my 24th bday is on Monday and I am not really looking forward to it. what’s wrong with us? haha. Hopefully your day will turn out more exciting than you think or feel. at least it gives you a reason to eat cake, right?
Happy belated 25th birthday! I hit the 25 year mark earlier this year. So far it’s been a pretty good year of life, though I’m incredibly impatient to finish school right now.
Birthdays can be letdowns sometimes but you’ll usually get surprised by an awesome day in the vicinity of your birthday which’ll be just as good, I promise!
[...] with Lifetime. Cheesecake dates. Adorable little French girls. Getting my first official pedicure. The fourth anniversary of my 21st birthday. Friends or Seinfeld? Getting ready to launch the newest Chicago [...]
Just a 20-something in Chicago trying to keep my head above water. Neurotic, over-thinking, shameless celebrity gossip addict, bad tv watching girl with expensive taste and no money but completely adorable, if I do say so myself.
